Encounters with Aliens on this Day

May 10

1952 - At 11:40 p.m. four yellow disc-shaped objects approached
the Savannah River AEC nuclear facility near Ellenton, South Carolina
from the south at a very low altitude. They flew straight and level for
a short period of time, but they had to rise to pass over tall tanks on
the ground. They made no sound, and weaved left to right as they flew.
Four DuPont workers were the witnesses. (Sources: Project Blue Book

p. 262).

1954 - RAF squadron leader Donald Higgin, flying in the second
of two Navy F3D-2 jet fighters over Elsinore, California at 12:40
p.m. sighted a delta winged UFO as it passed the first Navy jet at a speed
in excess of 240 knots. The UFO was half the length of the F3D-s (which
is 22 feet long), had a wing span about equal to it (20 feet), and had
a third fin on its upper half. It was the color of gun metal. A Project
Blue Book "unknown." (Sources: Project Blue Book files counted

Encounters, p. 23; UNICAT database, case 309, citing Project Blue
Book).

1957 - An abductee named McBride reported being abducted by aliens
while driving along the highway in Lake Isabella, California at
dusk. The witness first spotted a white bubble-shaped object floating
above the trees. It descended to just 10 feet above the ground. Thin,
bony looking humanoids, seven to eight feet tall, emerged from the object
wearing transparent clothing. They communicated using telepathy. (Source:
Ann Drufel, MUFON UFO Journal, August 1978, p. 16).

1957 - At 10:45 p.m. a 29-year-old man named Fekete was bicyling
home along a road in Beaucourt-sur-Ancre, France when he was temporarily
blinded by a light from above. Together with three of this neighbors,
he saw a pulsating object on the ground with the silhouettes of three
short men (4-5 feet tall) with large heads and a torrering gait. The light
rose into sky when a car passed. A circular ground mark was found at the
landing site. (Sources: Aime Michel, Flying Saucers and the Straight
Line Mystery, p. 211, Ouranos, issue #21).

1966 - In Marisela, an area of Caracas, Venezuela a man
observed the landing of an oval-shaped object and two beings at 4:52 p.m.
The beings emerged from the object through a system of light beams. The
creings used strange instruments to examine a number of objects, especially
some plants. They were two meters tall, had oversized heads, and appeared
bright and "transparent." Their eyes were slanted and they had very broad
shoulders. They wore no apparent weapons, but their belts were very wide
and emitted light rays. They did not touch anything without first illuminating
it with these beams. They went back aboard their craft "as if carried
by the light." (Source: Jacques Vallee: Passport to Magonia: A Century
of Landings, case 768).

1966 - At 10:00 p.m. on or about this date, a crowd of people
in Atafona Campos, Brazil were watching an outdoor movie when an
unknown aerial object crashed and exploded. They panicked, thinking at
the time it was perhaps related to an earthquake. According to the police,
a sulphurous odor and a hole in the ground 25 cm deep and 35 cm wide were
noted at the site. (Source: Jacques Vallee: Passport to Magonia: A
Century of Landings, case 767).

1967 - At 8:30 p.m. southeast of the town of Combs-la-Ville, France
a 1.5 meter pyramid shaped UFO landed on a road by the railroad tracks,
and then illuminated the surrounding area. (Source: Phenomenes Spatiaux,
December 1967).

1968 - On this night in Galesburg, Illinois Grant
Callison and his wife noticed three winged beings flying at an estimated
altitude of 500 feet. The beings appeared to be covered with feathers or
metallic scales which acquired an odd fluorescence as they reflected light
from the local street lamps. The strange trio lacked necks of any sort and
had short, conical tails. There were other sightings of the same creatures
in the area. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database 1968, #
2106, citing Scott Corrales, Unsolved UFO Sightings, Fall 1995).

1977 - A three and a half year old girl, Maria do Socorro,
had accompanied her grandmother while she did laundry in Serra Branca,
Paraiba state, Brazil and then vanished suddenly at around
11:00 a.m. She was missing for 22 hours. She mysteriously turned up at
the doorsteps of her family's garden. She said she had seen a beautiful
woman with a white scarf on her head and was irresistibly attracted to
a strong beam of light which the lady ran behind. The lady spoke to the
child but she "did not open her mouth to talk." Friends and neighbors
spent an entire day searching the area where she had last been seen, without
finding a trace. It was assumed by all involved that the phenomenon had
an apparently extraterrestrial cause, but no UFO was seen. (Source: David
F. Webb & Ted Bloecher, HUMCAT: Catalogue of Humanoid Reports,
case 1977-26, citing Noticias Populares, a Brazilian newspaper).

1978 - A UFO abduction occurred in a forest in Emilcin, Lublin,
Poland sometime after 7:00 a.m. The abductee, a 71-year-old man
named J. Wolski, encountered a UFO shaped like a bus, making a humming
sound. The humanoid had a greenish color and wore a black helmet. (Sources:

September 1994; UNICAT database, case 002, citing International UFO Reporter,
November 1983, p. 13).

1978 - At 10:50 p.m. the witness was walking home alone in Pelotas,
Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil when he observed a very bright object
in the sky that began to descend at a high speed. The object came low
over a nearby fenced field, and he could now see that it was a shiny circular
metallic craft within a fiery ball of flames. The craft continued to descend,
and projected two bright beams of white light to the ground and extended
four metallic legs. The area around the witness seemed to darken, and
he felt compelled to walk towards the fence. He was quickly grabbed by
two short humanoids who wore shiny white tight fitting suits. Their heads
were enclosed in helmets with closed visors and with two small antennas
protruding from the top. The beings spoke to the witness, then took him
inside the craft.

Once inside he started having difficulty breathing and noticed that the
air seemed warmer and dense. The room was illuminated by a bright light.
It was at this point that he noticed two more beings seated at a strange
looking console. The beings walked over to him and he was surprised to
see that they were female dressed in shiny white suits, with attractive
capes made of the same material. These also wore helmets with antennas.
They were a little taller than the other humanoids and had hair down to
their shoulders. One had black hair and the other was blond. The black
haired female approached the witness and told him that he was going to
be taken to their planet. The witness declined the invitation and begged
to be released. At this point the blond woman walked over and ordered
the others to let him go. He was then allowed to walk out and down a stairway
to the ground. He stood on the ground and watched while the object ascended
at high speed and vanished. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact
Database 1978, # 1621 citing Casellato, Da Silva and Stevens, UFO Abduction
at Botucato).

1989 - At just after midnight a 38-year-old male and a 16 year-old
female driving in Farmington, Michigan were pursued by a silvery
disc with a greenish tinge. Electromagnetic interference effects were
reported. (Source: Paul Ferrughelli, Computer Catalog of UFO Reports,
1988-1994, citing Robert Gribble, National UFO Reporting Center, Seattle).

1989, La Venta del Astillero, Zapopan, Mexico - Apolonio
Perez was awakened at 2:15 a.m. while sleeping in his camper by an extremely
bright white light that illuminated the surrounding area. Worried about
possible intruders, he searched the camper but found nothing. He returned
to his bed, but a few seconds later a pencil-thin beam of white light
lit the left side of his face. He heard a sound resembling a welder's
torch and felt facial pain. Frightened, it occurred to him that he could
be having another encounter with the occupants of a UFO he had seen years
before. As he lay there he next felt a jolt of electricity in his body.
Upset and in pain, Perez cursed at whoever was responsible for his pain,
and moments later he received a third powerful electrical jolt. He stood
up and managed to open the door of his camper just as the white light
seemed to dim and vanish. The next day he experienced severe headaches
and the left side of his face became swollen and began to bleed. For the
next two weeks he had a severe rash on his face that eventually left permanent
scaring. He would experience further encounters. (Source: Albert S. Rosales,
Humanoid Contact Database 1989, citing Luis Ramirez Reyes, Contacto:
Mexico).

1989 - Later that evening, at around 7:45 p.m., an elderly motorist
was driving in an isolated area of Bautista Canyon, California
when she saw a luminous 30-foot wide mushroom-shaped craft descend and
hover just above some nearby power lines. She stopped her car and observed
six to eight beings emerge from the craft and begin to work repairing
the outside of the object. After 10 minutes they re-entered the object,
which departed at high speed emitting a loud humming sound and a burst
of blue flame. They were reports of electrical outages in the area at
the time. (Sources: Paul Ferrughelli, Computer Catalog of UFO Reports,
1988-1994, citing a newspaper clipping; Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact
Database 1989, citing Debbie Steinberg, in Timothy Good (ed.) The UFO
Report 1991, p. 225).

1993 - In the pre-dawn hours of the night six witnesses on a road
west of Fortaleza, Ceara State, Brazil recorded three hours of
videotape of a nocturnal object which had several satellite objects exit
from it and then merge back into it. (Source: Bob Pratt, UFO Danger
Zone: Terror and Death in Brazil--Where Next? p. 291).

1994 - Two cows were found dead and mutilated at the Hronich Ranch
near Eagle Nest, New Mexico. Dr. Altshuler, a veterinarian from
Denver, Colorado involved in cattle mutilation investigations, arrived
at the site within 10 hours, and his forensic analysis revealed that the
two animals had cooked hemoglobin and cauterized incisions. Both animals
also had had pneumonia. (Source: Christopher O'Brien, The Mysterious
Valley, p. 239).

1994 - At around 11:00 p.m. three villagers in Sagrado Corazon,
Cosolapa, Mexico watched a large white light come from some nearby
hills and land a few meters away. A short humanoid creature exited from
the object. The humanoid was dressed all in white and had a shiny belt
and helmet that constantly changed colors. When one of the villagers attempted
to approach, the humanoid climbed back into the object. Minutes later
a boy threw a rock at the object, which promptly dimmed and took off,
flying back towards the hills at a high speed and quickly disappearing
from sight. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database 1994,
case # 2040, citing Dr. R. A. Lara, Samizdat, Vol. 2 # 4).

1999 - A man was awakened at 3:00 a.m. by a barking dog and a
strange humming sound outside his home in Oak Ridge, North Carolina.
He and another witness discovered an object, sitting in the sky just above
the tree line. (Source: Peter Davenport, National UFO Reporting Center,
Seattle, May 1999 web archive).

1999 - On this evening Manuel Jimenez was driving on Route N-3333
on his way back to Los Arenales, Spain when he noticed a bright
spherical light flying low over the area. Thinking it was a plane, he
continued driving. Five minutes later he saw a bright spherical object
resting on the ground in a nearby field, about 200 meters away. Two short
figures wearing shiny metallic outfits stood next to it. Sr. Jimenez stopped
his truck and watched the incredible scenario for awhile. Apparently the
little men noticed the witness, because they quickly entered the lighted
sphere, which then shot up into the sky at an incredible speed leaving
a luminous trail behind. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact
Database 1999, case # 3458, citing Jose Manuel Garcia Bautista).

1999 - At 10:30 p.m. an object flew back and forth through the
sky over Grantsville, West Virginia before emitting a giant ray
of light like a huge spotlight. (Source: Peter Davenport, National UFO
Reporting Center, Seattle, May 1999 web archive).
